Senior Member MrJobi Posted November 4, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted November 4, 2006 Minoxidil, Propecia, and Nizoral.. As far as a HT in India , I would save my money until I could go to a coalition doctor.. Not worse the risk in my opinion.

I'm interested in your perspective Mrjb, you say you use Minoxidil, Propecia, AND Nizoral, but only the first two are proven as you state elsewhere. On the other thread you discounted the notion of Copper Peptides though, which does present positive evidence, but in this thread you also propse Nizoral, which to my knowledge has no proven or even studied efficacy. Now I'm new, I'm a maiden here, so please help me connect the dots. I'm curious because Nizoral seems endorsed by many with no proof, while Copper Peptides appears to be ignored _with_ actual evidence to its credit. This seems odd to me. cheers, mark My Hair Loss Weblog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill - Seemiller Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 Mark H, I'll chime in with my opinion. I absolutely don't think there is harm in trying copper peptides or Nizoral, but the only two clinically proven to date are Propecia and Minoxodil. I'll let Mrjb answer your question as to why he recommends one and not the other. You may have read on another post I did try Nizoral and it seemed to irritate my scalp, make my head and hair more dry, and really affected me post op after the second one. So I still have a bottle of Nizoral 2% shampoo under my sink that I simply haven't used. Maybe I'll try it again when I'm at a year post op...but we'll see. As for copper peptides...you know more than I do. Do you have links pointing to it's scientific credibility? Again, there is no harm in trying it...I just wouldn't throw Propecia and Minox out the window and rely on it solely...but adding it into your routine can benefit you at best and do nothing additional at worst.

Senior Member MrJobi Posted November 5, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted November 5, 2006 Hi Good questions .. Well first Nizoral has clinically shown to increase hair count and it was used during testing trials on Propecia.. It has been said to have anti DHT qualities ( do a search on Niz on here and see). Best part is the company was not a part of any of these studies which shows objectivity rather than advertisment. It seems to work well with me for scalp health AND most importantly it's DIRT CHEAP..Many guru's use it 3 times a week as I try to do. Copper peptides did not work for me personally and are VERY expensive. Most of the evidence is driven by the companies themselves (ALERT ALERT) In addtion, I value what the masses say on here and most are saying Copper peptides do not have a big effect.. I'm not saying it doesn't work 100% of the time, but I have not seen anyone really speak highly of it (including my doctor) and for the money in my opinion, it's not worth the price or evidence Let's face it, it doesn't regrow hair Yes, though.. Minoxidil and Propecia are the only proven to regrow hair JOBI 1417 FUT - Dr. True 1476 FUT - Dr. True 2124 FUT - Dr. True 604 FUE - Dr. True My views are based on my personal experiences, research and objective observations.

Regular Member Tan Gill Posted December 3, 2006 Author Regular Member Share Posted December 3, 2006 I am on Propecia and Minoxidyl since last month but i haven't yet seen any effect on hairfall i am growing thru!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member nobuzz4me Posted December 3, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted December 3, 2006 Tan Gill, Keep in mind that these products may grow some new hair at best and at worst do nothing for you. The majority probably experience a slow down or halting of their hairloss. If you are destined to lose a lot more hair which looks possible, you will be very pleased to keep what you have. These drugs can help stave off future hairloss and any regrowth would not be visible for several months. Be patient and stay on it. NoBuzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Tan Gill Posted March 8, 2009 Author Regular Member Share Posted March 8, 2009 Been on/off on propecia and minoxi for quite some time now,though i will be honest here that i wasn't regular in the course,it was skipping a day or two or some times 15 days without medicine and was applying minoxi once a day.
